Anyone read this FAQ - http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/mobile/br...nternet_FAQ.pdf
Officially statement saying that RM99 unlimited will be limited to 3GB as well.
Hopefully, they will never enforce this.

1) digilife wif 1 multisim
2) AskarPerang with 2 multisims
3) maxcheam with 6 multisims (the primary sim that subscribed to the unlimited plan counted as multisim, right? the other 5 are secondary)

Maxis seems to improve the speed in Penang. Well, at least for Pulau Tikus area. Here's the speedtest result:



I forgot to mention that my modem is Huawei E1762 and i'm subscribing to Mobile Internet RM99 w/multiSIM

i've got a spare SIM to rent out.
Anybody interested please PM me with your offer.
Applicable for trusted member from Penang only, closer and easier to response if anything happen.
Thanks.

Looks like they're still upgrading the MultiSIM/Multi Line 1 SIM services. Expect intermittent interruptions. Hopefully, nothing changes but improvements. You know what I mean.

Quoted from Maxis' website:
"Please be informed that we are upgrading our Multi SIM/ Multi line 1 SIM services. In the interim you may experience intermittent service interruptions"

The upgrading message at Maxis's website has been taken away. However, I'm still unable to connect with my MultiSIM.

Back to normal after I've turn on and off the airplane mode on my phone. Looks like upload speed is much better.

Gelugor, Penang area.

I've tested Aztech (HW550-3G), Prolink (PWH2004) and TP Link (TP-MR3420) 3G routers.

I find TP Link is the best if you want more control over the router's configurations. And the best feature i like most compared to the other 2 brands is TP Link shows you the 3G signal strength within the web interface. I'm using it's WDS feature to link up two of the same routers wirelessly as I want to put one with HSPA modem + a Yagi antenna outside my house without laying long UTP cable to get the best HSPA signal from my low coverage hillside apartment. This router also supports firmware mod with OpenWRT.

Aztech has the most simplified Web UI and the least configuration. Can't even reserve a static IP address for your device if you need to. Aztech's USB port supports all kinds of USB devices including printers, mass storage and even USB hubs.

For Prolink, the only reason I'm keeping this router is the MAC address cloning feature that I use whenever I stay in a hotel that only provide wired broadband.

All three routers support auto-reconnect and they are sub-RM100 3G routers which I think is very cheap and meet most' requirements.

Just added the model of the routers that I tested.
